Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Vaalco concentrates on offshore assets in West Africa, with a strategic emphasis on maintaining and optimizing cash-flow–generating properties. Founded in the mid-1980s, the company has built its reputation by focusing on high-impact drilling prospects and extending the productive life of its core fields through targeted infill wells and enhanced recovery techniques. The company’s primary producing asset is the Etame Marin block offshore Gabon, where Vaalco holds a majority interest and serves as operator. Production activities on Etame include drilling development wells, conducting workovers on existing wells and managing pipeline infrastructure that delivers crude oil to onshore facilities for export. These operations underpin Vaalco’s revenue base and offer a stable platform for funding exploration and appraisal activities in adjacent offshore blocks. Beyond Gabon, Vaalco holds exploration licenses in select West African jurisdictions, including Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea. The company pursues a disciplined exploration strategy, targeting near-field and early‐stage prospects that leverage its technical expertise and infrastructure capabilities. Vaalco’s management team, based in Houston, maintains a lean organizational structure aimed at cost control, operational efficiency and responsible stewardship of its resources and host‐nation relationships.AI Generated.
